The FirstSpear Strandhögg MBAV Cut Plate Carrier utilizes a time proven ballistic footprint that affords the user more pocket attachment area than designs that are cut-to-edge. It can be worn with or without a soft armor panel, depending upon ballistic requirements, threat conditions and the type of plate utilized. Maximizing the new lightweight 6/12 technology and rapid closure systems provided by the Tubes, the MBAV Cut Plate Carrier can be rapidly donned or doffed and is capable of accepting the integrated inflatable floatation cummerbund from the Maritime 6/12 plate Carrier. Using a streamlined fit throughout, along with state of the art materials and production technology, the 6/12 MBAV Cut Plate Carrier is easily tailored for comfort, ventilation and fit.

Taking its name from an Old Norse Viking term for lightning raid, Strandhögg was one of the first formalized battle tactics to use infiltrators in advance of an actual raiding operation. Strandhögg was a tactical game changer in its time, just like the technological advances FirstSpear is bringing forward in this line of plate carriers.

NOTE: PLATE CARRIER ONLY, ballistic plates NOT INCLUDED
